Question 1 of 5
The nurse is reinforcing medication teaching with a client. The nurse explains that side effects are most likely to occur.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A, as side effects are most likely to occur at the start of medication therapy due to the body adjusting to the new substance. Initially, the body may react negatively to the medication, causing side effects. This is known as the "initial dose response."
Choices B and C are incorrect because side effects are not necessarily related to whether the medication is taken on an empty stomach or at high doses.
Choice D is incorrect because taking multiple medications can increase the risk of drug interactions, but it does not specifically relate to the timing of side effects.
